Eric I am soooo wanting one of these if you can move the redline to 6500 for my Quad.
Although I doubt this thing has ever seen 6500 with Jim, Steve and myself as the only owners, LOL!
Just let me know how much!
Cheers

Oddball update. Found out a while back the reverse lights don't work. Installed a switch and still didnt work. Plugged the wiring in to the old switch and manual plunged it: tada! So after the 5spd rebuild something no longer actuates the switch. So I had to fab a bracket and wire in a microswitch on the shifter. Actually more difficult than I would have thought...to get it to actuate and stay in R, but not when shifting into 2 or 4. I got it though now. So it's ready for inspection next week. haha

Kinda like how the Fieros have it. I thought about doing something like this, but for all 6 positions and have the H-pattern on the console light up in relation to which gear the car was in. Kinda like how somw BMWs are.

Well the POS stranded me today on the way to work. Fuel pump crap the bed. Thought it was ICM at first the way it acted. Flat towed it home tonight and now it's waiting for Amazon to deliver a new ACDelco EP241 IROC pump (same one I put in my truck) on Friday.

It's always the smallest part that leaves you stranded

Even better...I was just out of fucking gas! Dropped the tank and it was dry. Swapped the new fuel pump in anyway since I was running the original 95Z pump that's 20 years old. The TPI pump is a direct replacement with zero mods. Also just makes sense to run a pump for a 245hp car than 155. Put in a new strainer and fuel filter too...all ACDelco stuff.
So I splashed in a couple gallons and then filled it up and the gauge is still stuck. So, what is the solution for a dead gauge in the cluster? I assume you can swap one from another cluster? I have a spare cluster but I don't remember if the fuel gauge works...I do remember something was dead in that one.
So basically I towed it home and took some precious Camaro time for nothing...haha

Did you check to see if your getting a signal from the tank though? It could be an issue with the float wiring.

my gas gauge stuck when replacing my fuel pump, surprisingly after about a week it figured its life out and started working!

Wow, amazing how much better it runs with fuel!
Gauge hasn't miraculously come back to life. I reset my trip odemeter for now. I'll have to dig into the gauge/sending unit problem soon.

So would it be better to start with the poly bushings and their mounts first?

That's a 91 GT Eric, it would have been crosslaces.
For the bushings...yeah. Might as well do it right the first time.

Thank you, as someone that got in on the group buy and never had a rear bar I had to ask. Really just like to have a plan in place before starting something. Never had good luck just winging things.
That is a nice teal that she has. Dang nice to see two Berettas in good shape these days. Yours is a bit more special though, but a good stocker is almost as nice.
